In addition to their sound quality, Clear Mg headphones stand out for their chic and elegant design. Their Chestnut and Mixed Metals finish, as well as the fine materials used (leather, aluminium, microfiber), make it a truly design led accessory.

  • End Game Worthy
The FOCAL MG is truly something special, both in looks and sound. It's the kind of headphone that could be considered the ultimate destination for audio enthusiasts. The bass hits with a satisfying punch, but it never feels too heavy-handed. The mids are wonderfully rich and intricate, drawing you into the music. And the treble adds just the right amount of sparkle without any harshness. Overall, the FOCAL MG creates a warm, inviting sound that's incredibly immersive, with fantastic imaging and staging. The packaging and accessories are pretty standard. Unfortunately, the included cables are of low quality, which is a letdown given the FOCAL MG price. I strongly suggest investing in a third-party cable. I bought Youkamoo cables on Amazon for less than $20, and they're excellent for the price. On the bright side, the carrying case that comes with the headphones is sturdy and doesn't feel cheap at all. The FOCAL MG are quite easy to power and work well with nearly any source, though they do get a slight boost from a quality DAC/amp setup. Personally, I've paired them with the Fiio K7, and the combination works beautifully for a desk setup. On the go, I pair these with the Hiby R6 Pro II, and the sound is nearly indistinguishable from my desk setup using a balanced output Overall, I rate these a 4.5/5. ... show more

  • Wonderful!!!
First off I got to say that there is a break-in period the headphones “rattled “ for a period, just put on really loud music for 2 days and let them play ,(cover with blanket) after that…WOW ,WONDERFUL! I made a great choice , money well spent! Buy a good amp and you will never look back at your purchase ! I found out about "LOSSLESS" Sound setting on my computer , perfect clear sound , the amp I use has a balanced connection, what can I say this mid-priced Focal was a great choice. why spend more when these play music I just love to hear!!! I have now owned these for a couple months now, and don't let people tell you there is no base when the "break-in " period is done, they handle Metallica with ease. I have become addicted to acoustic, everything sounds Wonderfull UPDATE; I have now owned these headphones for 11 months and I believe they are fully "broken in" I have to say since I made some changes I am just thrilled with the sound.I first had them hooked up to the iFi Neo iDSD then I saw a add for McIntosh headphone amp. I KNOW ,I KNOW, why would someone buy a $1,500 headphone a get a $2,500 amp?....Simple, I just purchased an amp for my surround sound system and it really opened up the speakers. So being a big fan of McIntosh and knowing they stand for uncompromising quality I decided to get a DEDICATED headphone amp , ..no Dac, no frills, ... and WOW the sound is clear & clean, the focal clear MG,s perform at a next level. If you bump the impedance up on this amp to 100 ohm these baby's are pure enjoyment and don't forget to EQ to you liking.If you put HI-RES lossless source and good clean power to this headphone the desire to purchase a more expensive ( for now) will be tamed I,m going to add one last thing, I noticed that these headphones and your amp will take 5-10 mins to "warm up" some of the mids are fussy but after that amount of time the drivers settle and you are rewarded with some Wonderfull music. Keep in mind that you will have streaming issues from time to time that WILL EFFECT the sound, or there will be electrical issues that will from time to time make the headphones not perform at their best on that day.I listen about 1-2hrs every other day watching soccer with the sound off on the T.V. when everything is is clicking this system will make me just sit there in total bliss.... enjoy!!! ... show more

  • Excellent High Quality Headphones
Why did you pick this product vs others?: Pricy, but worth the money. Focal is known for its excellent headphones and the Focal Clear MGs don't disappoint. I also have a pair of Sony XM5s and while very good, don't really compare to the Focals. The only other headphones that come close are the Grado RS1x. I alternate between the Grado and the Focal. Excellent clarity, highs and lows and the soundstage is impeccable. I also use a THX Onyx DAC Amplifier with the Focals. Though not required, provides additional power. Overall, if you want high end, high quality, excellent sounding headphones, try the Focal Clear MGs. ... show more

  • Very nice but doesn't justify its price for me
I acknowledge that sound quality is very subjective, so your experience may differ. But for me, the sound quality is not 5x better than my Hifiman Sundara, so I'm struggling to justify paying 5x more for them. They definitely have more bass than the Sundara, but at the same time the beats are not as tight. Everything else as far as imaging and detail is comparable between the two, in my humble opinion. I would give them 3 stars for the price, but the carrying case is so luxurious and they look so beautiful that I'm adding a star. It feels to me like you're paying for the aesthetics here, because the sound is maybe 1.25x better than the Sundara, but they look and feel far more luxurious. But yeah, I care more about how they sound so these are going back. I'm gonna try a Hifiman Arya next and I'll update this review of those blow my mind. For now, I recommend you give Sundara a try. ... show more
